Partitionable Raid
by Eugenio Pacheco 02 Oct '13

02 Oct '13

Hi, After reading the tutorial at http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/Install_On_Partitionable_RAID1 I have the following question: What should I put instead of splashimage=(hd0,0)/grub/splash.xpm.gz and root (hd0,0) on /etc/grub.conf? Should I leave those lines untouched? If so, how would grub know where to boot from if /dev/sda fails? Or I would need to swap the drives in order to boot properly and then put a new one as /dev/sdb and then add it to the array? Thanks in advance for all the help. Best regards, Eugenio Pacheco

Weird netinstall issue
by Phil Dobbin 01 Oct '13

01 Oct '13

Hi. The other day I burnt a copy of a CentOS 6.4 64 bit netinstall disc, verified the disc which passed & about a third of the way through the install it informed me that there was no CD in the drive & refused to carry on. So I burnt another & the same thing happened. So using the same disk burner & the same batch of disks, I burnt a copy of a Debian 7.1 netinstall & it installed perfectly. Any thoughts gladly welcome (the CentOS disc was downloaded from the CentOS repos). Cheers, Phil... -- currently (ab)using Arch Linux, CentOS 5.9 & 6.4, Debian Squeeze & Wheezy, Fedora Spherical & That Damn Cat, Lubuntu 12.10, OS X Snow Leopard & Tiger, Ubuntu Quantal, Raring & Saucy GnuGPG Key : http://phildobbin.org/publickey.asc

SysRq over usb serial adapters
by Billy Crook 01 Oct '13

01 Oct '13

I am having trouble sending sysrq commands over USB serial, and I'm not sure what else to check. I have two identical machines, each with usb-to-serial adapters, joined by a null modem adapter. One runs an agetty, the other minicom. I can log in over the agetty as a user and it works as expected, until I try to send a sysrq. To send a break in minicom, I type [Ctrl]+[a] then [f]. Then I type the character [m] to do a test. I expect to see memory information print to screen, or at least show up in dmesg. Instead I only see the letter m on my shell. I'm using 115200, 8N1, VT102. I can echo m > /proc/sysctl-trigger, and dmesg shows that the sysrq was received when initiated via the procfs interface. But not over serial, and that's what I need. -- Billy Crook • Network and Security Administrator • RiskAnalytics, LLC

Hi all, I have a strong Dell server running RHEL5.5 every now and then the server hangs (SSH access is frozen) and when attemping to login the prompt hangs and after a while the message " can't update CMOS clock from 2 to 47 CIFS VFS No respone for cmd 114 mid 188" only a reboot causes it to work properly again. i tried fsck'ing with no luck. I must say the server does work very hard often, but I was wondering what could be the problem. Thanks! --- Dolev

Anyone using CentOS Active Directory like system?
by Tennant, Jacob 30 Sep '13

30 Sep '13

I am the IT Development Specialist for a small community college and our CIO has asked me to explore an alternative to Microsoft Active Directory as we are separating from our parent university and funding is tight so we were looking into CentOS with 389 Directory Server. Any advise or suggestions would be very helpful. Jacob Tennant

ghostscript-8.70-14.el5_8.1.x86_64 & hylafax+ 5.5.3
by Gregory P. Ennis 30 Sep '13

30 Sep '13

I am having some problems with hylafax+ on CentOS 5.9 converting files into appropriate tiff files that are faxable; the problem is apparently fixed in ghostscript 9.07. The CentOS repositories currently have ghostscript-8.70-14.el5_8.1.x86_64 I surely appreciate the maintainers of the repositories; can any of you direct me to whom maintains ghostscript on the repository or when 9.07 is planned to be included. I would also like to request that ghostpcl be included, but I am not certain who or how to ask. Thanks for your assistance. Greg Ennis
